Enter The Wonderful Puppet Circus where the magic of the circus turns into a horror of wood and clockwork. Behind the red velvet curtains and the merry music of the funfair lies a terrible secret.
The Wonderful Puppet Circus puts you in the shoes of a circus manager who finds himself locked within after hours, as huge, seemingly inanimate puppets start putting on a gory performance of their own.
The gameplay is a grueling test of multitasking and focus, forcing you to constantly monitor multiple elements within the circus.
Your goal is to hold your ground in the stage control room.
This is a crucial survival mechanic. You must constantly monitor and wind the magical music box; its melody is the only thing keeping the Master Puppet Entity asleep. If the music stops, it’s game over.
Use security monitors to track the movements of other puppets across the tent areas. When they are close, utilise spotlights or door curtains so they can’t get inside the control room.”
Any action you do , like monitoring cameras , turning lights on , etc , uses up your backup power . Use your energy wisely, lest you find yourself in the dark before daybreak.
Don't do random things. Create a regular schedule: Check doors -> Check cameras for dolls → Wind the music box → Repeat. Keep this rhythm and you'll never forget the very crucial music box. The graphics in this game may be grim. But the sound is always true. The creak of wooden joints, the ringing of bells, or the heavy thump of footfall on the floors are all signals that an adversary is near.
Your power supply is extremely limited. If you sense danger at the doorway, flash your flashlight for just half a second to verify. If you spot a puppet, close the curtain immediately; do not hold down the light button to stare at them.
Unlike humans, these puppets are controlled by strings. Remember to occasionally check the cameras covering the ceiling or air vents, as the Acrobat might drop down from above.
We hope you have a hauntingly entertaining time with The Wonderful Puppet Circus!
